You've already posted in the contracts ending thread. :roll:

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

From past experiance of doing nights as a Christmas Casual, they tend to just spring it on you when ever they want that "tonight will be the last shift" rather then give everybody much advance warning. I think this is to stop people not coming in or drifing off into other jobs the moment they hear an end date and RM having to recruit a load of last minute starters for a week or less to cover for the large amount of casuals that would do a runner between notification of end date and actual end date .
